Product description: A simulated global illumination lighting system.

System requirements: PC/Mac. Poser 5 or greater.

To install this product to your Poser Runtime, unzip the archive to your main Poser folder.


Usage notes:
************

Usage of the Halo Lighting System is straightforward. Simply select a lighting preset and render. Make sure you delete all lights before selecting a preset. If you're using Poser 5, I highly recommend obtaining a copy of ockham's DeleteLights python script from the free stuff area at Renderosity. This lets you delete every light in a scene with a single mouse click.

This system has been set up to be suitable for a wide variety of scene requirements, although the focus is primarily on full figure renders.
The backdrop prop will change colours according to the lighting used in the scene, so you never have to worry about a colour mismatch between it and the lighting.
The presets with an "_SM" suffix use shadow mapped lights, as do the "Global" presets. The "Overlight" presets use a combination of raytraced and shadow mapped lights, for a simulation of blurred raytraced shadows, and can produce quite a striking effect.
The backdrop prop will load centred in world space. You may need to adjust its position slightly, depending on how you have your figure placed in the scene.
